£10k WSOPE HU event thread (Congrats to Gus Hansen) - Page 13 - Poker News

Can you get 40% and is it likely that someone will play 25 HU SNGs in an hour? I think generally people don't play a ton of games at one time and will play a few tables at most.

14.2 with 70% rb which is pretty standard if you have a private affiliate.

I think betfair do 40% rakeback and I reckon you could do 7 turbos an hour so you would get $14 an hour rakeback. Dunno how that guy came up with a figure of 50, he must be some mental mass multi-tabler

They both want to play the ME, day1b is today.
They'll decide when either a) they both bust or b) end of day whether they're going to play it out today or not.
If not, same procedure tomorrow...i guess!

Ongame has 8% rake at HUSNGs... Every single person (including me) I know that plays SNGs at ongame has 8x deal, which is 62.5% rakeback in tournaments, meaning you make exactly $5.00/game in rakeback playing $108s. Even if they use rakeback instead of 8x bonuses for tournaments (which would be stupid) they'd still probably have 55-60% deals. Obviously the ROIs will be lower with that rake structure, but many regs still sustain >5%.

edit:
So to actually answer your question, you'd have to play 10 games in a hour to make $50 rakeback.

Yes he did, and made Day 2, though not with much of a stack.

So Gus is currently down about $700k for the day and he's going to be playing the final tonight. Not sure how he'll be feeling for that.

He was playing last night and I think he'd been playing on and off through the night pretty much.
